What are the nutritional needs of teenagers?

The demand for various nutrients reaches the maximum in adolescence, and gradually decreases with the continuous maturity of physical development. During the growth and development, the energy and protein of teenagers are in a normal balance. The increase of skeleton in adolescence accounts for about 45% in adulthood. The calcium nutrition in adolescence determines the peak bone mass in adulthood. Teenagers with high calcium intake every day have higher bone mass and bone density than teenagers with low calcium intake, and the risk of osteoporotic fracture decreases after entering old age. Adolescent boys get more muscles than girls, and myoprotein and hemoglobin need iron to synthesize. Due to the rapid growth and development, the storage of zinc in teenagers increases, so it is necessary to increase the intake of zinc. The incidence of goiter caused by iodine deficiency in adolescence is high, so attention should be paid to ensuring iodine intake in this period.

Collagen in Luercao brand Jubang tablets is an important component of human bones, especially cartilage. Collagen is like a net full of holes in bones, which will firmly retain the calcium to be lost. Without this net full of small holes, even if excessive calcium is added, it will be lost in vain. The essence of osteoporosis is that the speed of collagen synthesis can't keep up with the needs, that is to say, the speed of new collagen production is lower than that of old collagen mutation or aging. Studies have shown that no amount of calcium supplementation can prevent osteoporosis without collagen. Therefore, only by ingesting enough collagen to combine with calcium can calcium be quickly digested and absorbed in the body, and it can reach the bone and be quickly deposited.
